Vietnam team paid a heavy price after winning against Hong Kong

On the evening of June 15, the Vietnamese team had a narrow 1-0 victory over Hong Kong (China) with a goal by Que Ngoc Hai.

But to get this result, the red team had to pay a rather high price.

Specifically, up to 3 players of the Vietnamese team were injured in the match against Hong Kong.

The first case was midfielder Hoang Duc. The star player of Viettel had to take the full brunt of a tackle with the sole of a Hong Kong player's boot near the end of the first half.

After this play, Hoang Duc appeared to be in a lot of pain and was carried off the field on a stretcher.

Although there is no detailed information yet, it is very likely that this is a serious injury for the 2021 Vietnamese Golden Ball.

Not only Hoang Duc, two other stars of the Vietnamese team, Ho Tan Tai and Doan Van Hau, were also injured and had to rest.

In coach Troussier's debut match, the Vietnamese team won but was not really convincing.

The red team attacked a lot but were not effective and their attacks were quite simple.

Not only that, the Vietnamese team's defense also exposed gaps behind them and was exploited by the opponent.

Without the excellent reflexes of goalkeeper Van Lam and luck, the "Golden Star Warriors" would have been at risk of receiving a bad result against an opponent 52 places lower on the FIFA rankings.

As planned, on June 20, the Vietnamese team will have a friendly match with Syria at Thien Truong Stadium ( Nam Dinh ).
